Swaybg works pretty well for me. I just configured it load ~/wallpaper.jpg and have never touched it since (if I want to change I just swap out the bg file)

Waybar is awesome, being able to use CSS for it is great and it's pretty easy to make your own modules for it if you know your way around a shell script

As far as I'm aware for clipboard management I only installed wl-copy and wl-paste, though that's because I use them in scripts and some software depends on them

Search tool I'm using rofi but might switch soon because a hyprland update broke the theme I was using

For most of the tiling WMs out there they are by nature very technical because the only people willing to completely change the way they use their computer are people who are already very comfortable with them

That said, I think there are all in one tilers out there that do a lot for you by default, and I believe you can install a tiling WM over KDE as well and just use its stuff

The only reason vaping or smoking makes you feel less anxious is because withdrawal makes you more anxious

Have to second this, I love Vscode over ssh but don't really want to use it on a machine I don't own personally because of it installing itsself everywhere you go. Fortunately sshfs and neovim exist

Afaik generally there is only one way of doing most things

There are a few choices like whether you just want the package installed and left alone or installed and configured with nix

(Adding something to the systemPackages list vs using programs.firefox.enable for example)

You only really get into the really program-ey bits when you start using more advanced features, which you absolutely don't need to to achieve the same things as a normal package manager

I'm by no means an expert but feel free to ask if you need any explanations/help

Not just for arch but the community in general is also really quick to suggest you change the technology you're using.

I've had a couple occasions before where I've mentioned a problem and people immediately tell me to use their window manager of choice instead because it's better

Nix really isn't very difficult, the way you'd use it for a system configuration it's more like a config file than programming

It's mostly stuff like programs.firefox = { enable = true; };

NixOS

Mostly perfect in my opinion but it'd be nice if when they renamed options they didn't deprecate the old option names so old configs still worked

You've zaphod beeblebroxed yourself

Like disassembling the sink and shitting down the pipe maybe

You would think you'd already have problems if someone's managed to compromise one or more of your containers without you knowing though whether they can get the host or not

Could be serving users malware or silently sucking up all the sensitive data the container sees

What if anything do people do about anti virus in containers?

See the whole point of Linux to me seems to be to allow user choice.

Windows and Mac are just as valid choices depending on a user's needs

This, don't get why people are so set on convincing the world to switch.

Userbase is big enough that support is pretty good, we've all got what we want out of it, why try to push it on people who don't care about technology
